Hey Everyone-
Just wanted to share will all of you what I intend to do to my login
screen on my mud. I have gotten several emails from brand new players who
have never played a mud before saying something like, "I need the
password to play your mud. What is it?" or "How can I register to play
your mud, it asks for my name and password."
I am either going to add a menu like press [1] to play with your existing
character, press [2] to create a NEW character. Or I might do something
like Enter your character's name or 'new' to crate a new character. I
think this would be much more newbie friendly. I know some muds already
do this, but based on the amount of feedback I get, I think it's a pretty
good idea.
Just though you might be interested,
-Brian
